An action day for everyone who wants to experience waste separation anew
On Wednesday, June 10, 2026, the Gera Arcades and the area in front of the Cultural and Congress Center Gera will transform into a vibrant meeting point around environmental protection, waste consulting, and recycling. The AWV East Thuringia invites, together with the initiative Waste Separation Works and the city of Gera, to a participatory day that combines information, entertainment, and practical everyday tips.
Knowledge that stays
The focus is on waste separation and recycling. Visitors will meet the AWV East Thuringia and the Environmental Office of the city of Gera, receive informational material, ask questions about public waste disposal, and take practical hints for everyday life. The sorting game provides a playful approach and aims at direct engagement with the target audience instead of dry theory.
Participation offers with an experience factor
Those visiting the action day will experience a mix of consulting, shows, and interaction. In front of the Gera Arcades, a show truck from the initiative Waste Separation Works invites from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. to quizzes, information, and encounters with the sorting bear. The moment thrives on audience mood, vivid communication, and a feeling of an event that makes environmental education tangible.
City center with short pathways
The Gera Arcades are centrally located in the city and are easily accessible. The surroundings offer a straightforward event experience with public transportation connections, parking options, and proximity to the town hall. This creates an open format with low-threshold access, especially for families, passersby, and curious city visitors.
Conclusion
The AWV Action Day on the occasion of World Environment Day combines information, participatory fun, and sustainable impulses into a compact experience right in Gera. Those seeking practical tips for waste separation and recycling will find here a lively action day with added value. A visit is worthwhile for all who want to experience environmental knowledge directly on site.
